I'll keep this pretty brief for the non-spoilery ones among you - this film is awesome, go and see it, it'll keep you riveted every second.

Spoiler-free version - pretty awesome film, absolutely hilarious and well worth watching if you have any interest at all in Joss Whedon/Horror.

| Diablo 3 Beta |
[Apr. 22nd, 2012|10:29 am] |
I've played through the Diablo 3 Beta as a Wizard this weekend. I've got some overall thoughts to share, but if you're just interested in my overarching opinion: This is not the same game as Diablo 1-2 by a long ways, but the game that it is could be a lot of fun co-op.
Oh, and spoilers from here btw, not that I think there's anything earth-shattering storywise in what I'm going to tell you.
I'll explain exactly what I mean by that after I've gone over some basics.

| Insect Nation: Novelisation: Part One |
[Apr. 11th, 2012|09:48 pm] |
So, as those of you who read my posts may remember, I participated in NaNoWriMo last year and successfully churned out 50,000 words of a novel.
I then collapsed, and took all the time away from it that I could, and was going to recommence in January but life happened, I had too much stuff to do and I get let things slip.
This was my first attempt at fiction of this length, so there are bound to be errors in style and composition, but I think it mostly turned out OK. Not good enough to try and get properly published, in my estimation, so I've decided instead to let anyone who cares to read it for free via this blog.
I'll be posting it in chunks over the next month(s) as a spellcheck, and in the case of the last few chapters, finish writing the damn thing.
First chapter after the cut:

| The Enemy Within (WFRP) |
[Mar. 11th, 2012|07:12 am] |
The hours pass and I know I should be doing things
None depend on me, but I depend on myself and the actions that could bring home new things
Wealth, prosperity, love, experience, adventure. Once upon a time I would have sought them out, with nary a glance at the consequences.
But doubt is a sickness within me that has grown to a tumour of inaction and laziness that has rotted me through to my very core, until all that is left is a fattening shell of worthless, wordless blubber and tears, reduced to screaming at himself in his own head.
And finally, he understands in his heart that the daemon won after all. It sought corruption and disease to fall down upon his house, and though he bested it in strength of arms his spirit died once it was gone, once a unifying and mobilising threat was present.
In his head, he can hear the cackling of the daemon once more.
He almost reaches for his sword, but realises the futility before his hand can move an inch. The enemy without he bested.
But the enemy within has won |
